Note:
The hack now has 2 versions, the original version (named original) and the one with a retranslation (named retranslation)
The "original" does NOT contain the new retranslation and the "retranslation" does NOT contain the patch "FF2 with FE QoL Hacks 0.2" (https://retrohackers.net/hack-details.php?id=4372/), this had to be done due to the number of incompatibilities the "FF2 with FE QoL Hacks 0.2" has with other patches. So pick the original patch if you care a bit more about those quality of life changes, pick retranslation patch if you prefer alternative dialogues.
